Would be cool :D

The Guildford run is not to far away and ends just outside Petersfield- so fairly local \:D/

Greddymatt organised a New Forest run a bit ago, but it was cancelled, when his car got sick :(

good shout mark im up for this pending when it is, :thumleft: and if thats the case i better get my wheels off and get them reburbed cos they look s....t at the moment, :-$ it might be worth puting a thread on www.mr2oc.co.uk aswell so that we get a good turn out, :-k winging out to bishops waltham is a good call tiny, some nice places and roads out that way, another option is we could fly out to the new forest then get on the m27 down to portmouth ending up on the seafront, :-k we could always stop in a pub somewhere on the run for a liquid lunch maybe, =P~ just a thought. :whistle:

Instead of redirecting members to another site, why not post details of the event directly here in IMOC?
Ensure as much detail as possible is put in the thread including, location, dates, times etc etc. Any past event reports would also be a good idea so people can see what they can expect of the meet.

Moving to events discussion forum for now. Please only use this part of the site for events that have an agreed date and location.
Thanks

yeah seems to have generated a fair bit of interest, we could all hit this OC meet on the 30th that Greddymatt has posted above?

if were going to start up a regular south coast meet/run we should set a date and pick a route, any ideas?

weeknight or weekend?

Dont know Hows tuesday Next week grab people bit different.

I was thinking Ocean village Start or Hedge end retail start then out
towards Fairoak-Bishopswaltham-Wickham-B2177-Portsdown Hill finish. Stop in wickham highstreet to pick everyone back up natter etc.

Ive chosen the B2177 as its Really wide during the 2nd world war it was used as an emergency runway and the Turns are fantastic as shown you can get up some mean speed.

Map

what do you think
